This means that everyone who is testing Windows 10 Technical Preview will be able to test Office 2016 Preview as well. Chief of Windows Insider Program, Gabe Aul recently announced this via email which was sent to all Windows Insiders. And you can download your free copy of Microsoft Office 2016 Preview here. Office 2016 will be available for free to all Office 365 subscribers, but it will also be available as a free trial to everyone else.

Good thing about this free trial is that trial period is unusually long, as it lasts for 150 days from the first installation of Office 2016 Preview.
